1 Panel Discussion Towards the Future of Geomatics Science Its Global Impacts Wuhan University Prof. Li Deren 19 th -20 th Nov. 2018, Deqing, China Definition of Geomatics (ISO,1996) Geomatics is a field of activity which,using a systematic approach, integrates all the means used to acquire and manage spatial data required as part of scientific,administrative,legal and technical operations involved in the process of production and management of spatial information. These activities include, but are not limited to,cartography,control surveying,digital mapping, geodesy, geographic information systems, hydrography, land information management,land surveying,mining surveying, photogrammetry and remote sensing. Geomatics is the modern scientific term referring to the integrated approach of measurement,analysis,management and display of spatial data. 1

2 New definition of Geomatics in big data era Geomatics in big data era is a multiple discipline science and technology which,using a systematic approach, integrates all the means for spatiotemporal data acquisition, information extraction, networked management, knowledge discovering, spatial sensing and cognition, as well as intelligent location based services of any physical objects and human activities around the earth and its environment. The future of Geomatics 1. Full automation; 2. Real time services; 3. From earth observation to human observation. 2

10 Concept Map of EOB Concept of EOB The human brain obtains information of the surrounding environment by visual, auditory and other functions. Then the information is transmitted to the left and right hemispheres using the neurons. The left and right hemispheres analyze the surrounding environment information, thus guiding people's behavior. EOB can achieve on-board sensing, cognition and transmitting the right data, information and knowledge to theenduserinrealtime. 10

13 From Earth Observation to Human Observation Human Environment Relationship EO Technology of Remote Sensing Spatiotemporal Variations of Environmental Changes Qualitative, Quantitative, etc. Category, Intensity, Mixture, etc. Spatiotemporal Variations of Human Activities (HO) Human Observation Evaluating the Syrian Civil War using the night-time light RS We use the DMSP/OLS monthly product to show the night-time light in Syria. From these images, most of previously lighted areas have fallen to darkness Night-time light in March, 2011 Night-time light in February,

14 Evaluating the Syrian Civil War By using clustering analysis on normalized multi-temporal night-time light images, the spatiotemporal pattern of the night-time light is revealed The two-class map shows two different night-time light variation patterns with the international border as the pattern border; The three-class map shows a similar pattern Evaluating the Syrian Civil War Al Jazeera report on our research xyz{ }~ ƒ ˆ 14

16 Smart Emergency Brain of Wuhan Traffic Management In 2017, in the national ranking of traffic congestion, the system improved Wuhan from 23to 53. In Oct. 2017, using 7 quick model, the system minimized traffic congestion accident handling time from 7 minutesto 90 seconds. On 11 th Dec. 2017, KeqiangLi, the Prime Minister of P. R. China, spoke highly of the system after watching its operation. Conclusion 1. The ubiquitous space-air-ground sensors will produce unprecedented big spatio-temporal data; 2. Facing the situation of mass data, less information, lack of knowledge, the integration of big geospatial data, cloud computing and AI techniques should be very important; 3. The integration of earth observation and human observation is helpful to answer the human-nature relation. 16
